1. All you nations, come near and listen.Pay attention, you peoples!The earth and all the people in it should listen,the world and everything in it.
2. The Lord is angry with all the nations;he is angry with their armies.He will destroy them and kill them all.
3. Their bodies will be thrown outside.The stink will rise from the bodies,and the blood will flow down the mountains.
4. The sun, moon, and stars will dissolve,and the sky will be rolled up like a scroll.The stars will falllike dead leaves from a vineor dried-up figs from a fig tree.
5. The Lord’s sword in the sky is covered with blood.It will cut through Edomand destroy those people as an offering to the Lord.
6. The Lord’s sword will be covered with blood;it will be covered with fat,with the blood from lambs and goats,with the fat from the kidneys of sheep.This is because the Lord decided there will be a sacrifice in Bozrahand much killing in Edom.
